These are pictures taken in the 70's when both my uncle's family and our family would spend the day out at Polly Cove, Nova Scotia here on Canada's east coast while the men went scuba diving. The moms would set out the blankets and fix snacks and lunches, and of course hang out together, while the four of us kids - two sets of siblings, making four cousins - would run all over the rocks having a grand old time.

That's Uncle Charlie at top, and my dad below.

These are my happiest childhood memories.

Robin says Great choice for Summer Stock. Look at those wetsuits though - that water must have been FREEZING

Bim says Hello fellow (ex)film-person! I love this colour quality of prints from a time when I was a child, too.

Hip Chick says I love the 70's of it. That is one beautiful part of the world. I haven't been up there in about 20 years but I remember it as being very pretty.

Very Good Julia, I did a post for Summer Stock Sunday. I kept it simple, Thanks for passing the New Meme info on. Will Head over to Robin's to let her Know I took part. Beautiful day hope you have taken break from writing or at least moved it out into the garden.

Robin - I'm so glad you started this up. It's going to be a magnificent summer.

Nikki - Can you tell it stays cool by the ocean out here? Those are summer shots but we had to wear jackets.

Barb - Very, very fond memories.

Bim - Glad I've bumped into you in the blogosphere!

Hip Chick - Cool that you've been out this way.

This Eclectic Life - I love all the vicarious visiting I get to do through people's blogs!

Ms Snarky Pants - That's my sister and me. I love that shot, too.

Dianne - Thanks!

Travis - It's cool, alright - even summer is cool when you're next to the Atlantic!

Daryl - I'm having fun with this photo project and it's only the first one.

Mary T - Those are authentic 70's dive suits. There's an exact replica of the dive gear my dad used to wear here in Halifax at the Maritime Museum. I always get a big kick out of looking at it when I go there.

Heather - Glad you found it so you could do up a post! Yours is sweet.

I love the pictures, but I'm crazy about the memories that go with them! The ocean looks spectacular!! I love to just watch the water crashing in the shore. I've never scuba dived, but based on those underwater TV cameras, it really looks incredible. One of these days, I'm going to have to give it a try. Thanks for sharing these!
